I got it running on Kubuntu 24.04 by adding older repos for the dependencies and installing seahorse for the keyring.

I have a 4-day work week (32h - fridays off). The 3-day weekend is a game changer.
At first! The earliest Eee PC had an Atom N270, but I upgraded to one with an Atom 330 later. Two cores, baby!
2003? Better be safe than sorry. 2023? You'll be fine. If it smells good and tastes good, it's usually still good.
They were nice little machines, but I don't miss the keyboard.
This is exactly what I've been trying to move away from :/
Enjoy it! Riding season is about to end here in Europe - can't wait for next year :)
Unfortunately, that's really not true for most sim racing hardware. Lower-end Logitech and Thrustmaster stuff usually works fine, but you're pretty much screwed once you go beyond that.
Thank you so much! This is actually exactly what I was afraid of - and knowing myself, I'll barely ever use the wheel if I have to reboot into Windows for it...guess I'll stick with my trusty G29 for a little longer. Hope the Fanatec stuff is going to mature a bit in in the future - the Github repo does seem to be pretty active, so let's see :)
Hey, did you ever try this? I'm in the exact same boat - been running a G29 for quite some time and looking to upgrade...
Technology has come so far.
If you want to go this route - make sure there's a default keyring in seahorse, and you set a password for it :)
